Run from systemd unit file.
Doty1154 opened this issue · 3 comments
Hey I'm trying to run this from a systemd unit file on a up to date ubuntu server.
I previously used https://github.com/marcsello/minecraftd
So it's running from a specific user account and directory.
It sounds like the binary doesn't not like running from systemd for some reason. However if i run it manually from the "minecraft" user account in the /opt/minecraft folder your program works without issue(cool!)
Here's the issue i get for the systemd unit with debug systemd turned on:

Here is my systemd unit file, I've tried different types, using simple and then not specifying it. I also tried specifying kill mode/killsignal and not using these options.
[Unit]
Description=mc-server-wrapper
After=network-online.target
[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=/opt/minecraft/.cargo/bin/mc-server-wrapper
WorkingDirectory=/opt/minecraft
Restart=always

KillSignal=SIGINT

Hmm, interesting!
The best bit of information about what's going on is in this log line:
Apr 02 02:59:29 minecraft mc-server-wrapper[1527]: Error: Resource temporarily unavailable (os error 11)
Looking around the internet, I see a wide variety of possibilities for what that could mean.
- It could mean systemd is preventing my program from spawning processes (but I don't see
TasksMax=1in your config, so this seems unlikely): https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63596088/python-script-that-spawns-processes-fails-to-start-under-systemd - It could mean the Minecraft server is already running on the port my program is trying to start it on: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55028887/how-can-i-fix-resource-temporarily-unavailable-error-in-rust
- It could be a number of other things
Are there any logs from mc-server-wrapper itself you can share? Any kind of panic / backtrace information?
Hey, i know it's been a while since i posted. But. I got this working by simply using screen to open mc-server-wrapper in a active terminal session. I believe your package just exits once it sees that it's not running interactively(?) At least this is my theory.
I think long term maybe adding a -D flag or something where there isn't a tui but just a background process would be great in the future : )
Here's the config i'm using rn.. It doesn't exit appropriately so systemd ends up waiting like 2 minutes during shutdown and kills the process.. that sucks.. I'm not enough of a systemd wizard to figure out a better solution : p

Oh neat!
If I ever spend time on this project again I'll look into cleaning that up. I haven't played MC for a while so I don't have much of a reason to work on this tool.
